AI is a term that has different meanings in different settings and contexts. I don't think anybody has a monopoly on what AI must mean or not. Since AI has also become a popular marketing term, many may want to use it to label their new technology perhaps to get attention to it or to distinguish it from the old technology.
Is there any sort of 'intelligence' in the AI AF of these cameras. I think there is even if it doesn't learn and doesn't improve itself. It is still a sort of 'intelligence' compared to the old dumb AF.
I really don't see any point in getting stiff on what the term 'AI' must indicate or implicate and must not. There are matters around AI that must concern or seriously worry us, the ordinary human beings. Being picky on the vocabulary of these emerging new technologies is the least of my concerns.

This camera, like all others, doesn't contain a trace of AI. AI would mean that the camera learns through your shooting experiences, so that each individual copy over time develops individual reactions to shooting situations. Of course this isn't the case, each copy of a certain camera model reacts in the same way, and that reaction doesn't change over time.
